In depth
Verdict
Bob Hall was never travelling on his reappearance at Sandown and was tailed off when pulled up. But he's bounced back from similar disappointments in the past and is capable of doing so again here. Good Company can't be ignored after winning by six lengths at Ludlow last month but Overlut looks to have plenty to find on the book and more interesting is RASH MOVE, who is a prolific winner between the flags and was second at Fakenham on his reappearance under Rules last month - he gets the vote here. Locksmith was second in a point-to-point at Chaddesley Corbett two weeks ago but doesn't appear the force of old.
